I’m coming to the fork in the road with my hair (locs)!! I wanted my 1st post about hair to start with my natural hair journey, but I’m just going to get into it.
I have dreads, dreadlocks, locs whatever you want to call them. Hence the name Lovelylocks (Instagram and Pinterest). Last night I was moisturizing my hair like I normally do using the LOC method. My hair is pretty long, near the small of my back actually. As I was rubbing in the cream, this very long black and brown lock of hair fell into the bathroom sink. Immediately my mouth fell open in shock. I didn’t expect that, well not so soon anyway. I say that because I have several tiny locs.
Tiny locs, as I call them are my locks that are very thin at the base. They have been working my nerves since late 2017. This may be breaking news to some, but I’ve cut half of my locs off. It’s primarily due to several tiny locks showing up throughout my scalp. Prior to going to the salon to have them cut, I started cutting a few myself. I even combed a couple of them out. Yep I sure did! I will tell you more about that in a later post.
I really think I’m going to cut them all off. Eventually time will tell. A few months ago I said late Summer, I was getting rid of them. Looking at the calendar, um that’s a few months away, so maybe not. Again, I’m at the fork in the road and not sure which way to turn. Change is a good thing. Either way, whether it’s left or right I’ll still be cute.
